Chapter 414 The craze at the auction
Lu Feng thought and said doubtfully, "Mr. An, you don't want me to prepare a place for you, do you? It's so easy. In this way, I'll immediately arrange a place for you and the people you bring, and keep it to your satisfaction.
An Lao laughed and scolded, "Let's pull it down. If I can't even find a place to live and come and bother you, won't it prove that I'm too ineptible? I didn't ask you for help with this matter, but the Stanford auction house. I need two tickets. You are not the client! I should give you some tickets for the auction, right?
Lu Feng was slightly stunned, and then smiled bitterly and said, "Mr. An, if you didn't say it, I didn't expect this problem. Mr. Edward really didn't give me a ticket to the auction, so I'll call him immediately.
A few minutes later, Lu Feng hung up the phone with a smile and said, "Mr. An, I have already talked. Mr. Edward has left me the only VIP room of the auction house. There are ten people in the VIP room. You can stay with me."
An Lao nodded slightly, and a satisfied look appeared on his face. Then he laughed and scolded, "Sure enough, there is someone in the court to do things. I didn't expect that I would go through the back door one day. Get out of here. Hurry up and find me a place to live. If you want to find something near here, you don't have to go back and forth.
Lu Feng was stunned and suddenly showed a look of crying or laughing. I just said that I should find it for him, which is in the ability, but now this task has fallen on me again.
Soon, Lu Feng helped An Lao find an apartment, not far from where he lived, and it was only six or seven minutes away by car.
****************
The next morning, six cars rushed to the Stanford auction house. Lu Feng and An Lao, Shang Wende, Mr. Wang and Wang Yumeng. Yu Kai and others did not walk through the door, but entered the only VIP room in the auction venue through the employee channel.
Through the clear and transparent glass of the VIP lounge, Lu Feng looked at the rich people in the venue who showed the momentum of the superiors, or world-class bigwigs with super energy, and sighed in his heart: his fate has really changed. If a few years ago, someone told him that he could be with these today The bigwigs who solved the problem gathered together, and he wouldn't believe it if he killed him, but now, he has to sigh that he is making fun of people.
That sentence is well said: 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi.
It doesn't take 30 years. In just three years, he has touched the door to success.
In this auction, the host is Edward, the boss of the auction house. Standing on the auction table, Edward resisted his inner excitement, looked at the prominent figures, and laughed with a microphone in his hand, "It's an honor that our Stanford auction house can welcome you all over the world today. I, Edward, am deeply excited and happy. Here I would like to express my gratitude for your arrival. Thank you for your support.
"I understand that everyone's time is very precious, and even how much money they can earn per minute, so I consciously stop talking and waste everyone's time. Now I announce that this auction will start now."
Edward's words were very humorous and funny. After the big shots present smiled, they became serious and said, "Next, what is about to be auctioned is a 17th-century bronze jade, which is also an appetizer of this auction. I believe that many people have heard of bronze jade, and its value does not even need to be poor. Therefore, the price of this copper jade is 20 million US dollars. Its information is in front of you, and now the bidding begins.
Copper jade is a very precious tool. It is made of excellent jade and bronze. Its process is extremely difficult, and each finished product is of great value.
Therefore, this kind of rare item is the favorite thing for collectors.
After a while of **, almost 30 seconds after Edward's voice fell, a millionaire in the Middle East raised the bidding board in his hand. After the spotlight shone on the bidding board, a set of numbers appeared on the big projector behind Edward: 24 million US dollars.
However, this set of numbers only appeared on the projector screen for less than three seconds, and was topped by other people's quotations: 28 million.
Obviously, this first appetizer item is deeply loved by everyone, so the price of this bronze jade has soared to $39 million in just ten minutes.
"Thirty-nine million dollars, the price of this bronze jade is already 39 million dollars. Is there anything higher? Nowadays, there are fewer and fewer bronze jades. Owning it is equivalent to having a large amount of wealth. Its price increase is also very large..."
Edward's sensational words made most people excited. Finally, after several rounds of bidding, the bronze jade was sold for $42 million.
Lu Feng, sitting in the VIP room, looked at the auction results in front of him with a look of shock on his face.
He really didn't expect that a piece of copper jade could be auctioned at such an expensive price. You know, there were three pieces of copper jade he salvaged from the bottom of the sea.
"The second auction item is..."
The auction was slowly going on. In a blink of an eye, more than half of the items had been auctioned, and Lu Feng was shocked to look at the rich people in front of him, looking at their heroic attitude of throwing a lot of money, and his heart was full of joy.
"What?"
Suddenly, in the bidding of an item, Lu Feng accidentally saw a familiar face and a bare head.
Is it him?
Lu Feng's eyes looked at the middle-aged man with a faint smile on the corners of his mouth.
That man is Tiesheng's father, Tie Tianba, the head of the Shanxi Tie family. Lu Feng did not expect to see him here. Similarly, he was also secretly shocked that the Shanxi Tie family would be so rich that he could have a place here.
"Master, you should know the bald middle-aged man in the middle of the eighth row in the audience seat in front of the left, right? Tie Tianba, the owner of the Shanxi Tie family, is the father of a good friend of mine. Lu Feng gently touched Shang Wende's arm next to him and whispered.
Shang Wende followed the direction of Lu Feng's finger. Suddenly, his expression moved slightly, and then he smiled and said, "I didn't expect this little guy to come too. It seems that their iron family has developed well over the years.
Lu Feng smiled and was about to speak. An Lao, who was on the other side, smiled lightly and said, "For more than 20 years, the development speed of the Shanxi Tie family has indeed been very fast, and even their Tie family has become the largest taxpayer in Shanxi. Among them, the whole Shanxi, more than half of the coal mining industry, has the shadow of their iron family. This iron tyrant's character is still decent, otherwise..."
Lu Feng and Shang Wende were both silent. Their hearts were like a mirror. If Mr. An didn't finish his words, I'm afraid it would be, "Otherwise, their Tie family would have been suppressed by the state long ago."
For this An Lao who has the power to kill, even Shang Wende can say something and some can't.
The auction was carried out in an open manner. Lu Feng was excited and looked at the constantly turning auction price. Why didn't he close his mouth with a smile?
Soon, all the items were left with the last two, which were diamonds and a complete set of jade.
Edward's smile is so bright! This auction was very successful, and the auction price of all the previous items was much better than he expected.
At this time, he liked Lu Feng, the god of wealth, who came to his door. Even if possible, he had the impulse to hug Lu Feng and kiss him fiercely.
"I think many people will be interested in the next auction items, such as who has more women, who loves beauty, for example, which jeweler, such as the rich people who like shiny things like dragons, etc., because the next auction items are 182 diamonds, after our auction. It is confirmed that these diamonds belong to South African diamonds, and even one of them is almost the largest in the world, so the auction reserve price of these diamonds is 100 million US dollars. The bidding begins.
After Edward's voice fell, the rich people who had already learned that there was this auction item were ready to move. Diamonds are items that will never depreciate. Although it is not an antique cultural relic, for people, with a large number of diamonds, they can prove their status and make them love. If a woman is happy, she can wait for the appreciation space...
Intense bidding, in 20 minutes, the bidding price of this batch of diamonds soared to a sky-high price of 250 million US dollars.
However, the final price also stays at this price, because everyone has a scale in mind. No matter how high it is, unless it is a special demand, it will not waste money.
Although many people's concept of money is a large string of data, they also have a horizontal ruler in their hearts, which is the concept of value and worthless.
"The last item, the mysterious jade. For the origin of this set of jade, we have read countless classics and searched for a lot of historical materials. Whether it is the mysterious East or the West, we have searched for cultural materials in almost every corner of the seven continents and eight oceans, and even during this period, we have consulted. There are countless antique experts, but no one can tell what era this thing is and which country's antique cultural relics it is.
"Of course, there are still some clues, such as the form of these jade, among which is the jade Ruyi of the faraway country of China, and the pipa-like musical instruments. Of course, there are also saxophones similar to Western musical instruments. In short, it is definitely a historic antique. In terms of jade, it is also absolutely It is the best. Therefore, his low price is 400 million US dollars. The bidding starts now.
A trace of ** happened in the crowd. Everyone looked at the information about the mysterious jade in their hands and was ready to move. Even these antique masters could not be sure about the antiques. In case someone knows its origin one day, I'm afraid the price will skyroper. After all, it is now confirmed that it is a antique.
400 million US dollars?
Lu Feng, who was sitting in the VIP room, suddenly stood up, with an incredible light in his eyes, and he shouted, "Oh, my God! Is this Edward crazy? Why did he set such a high price for this? 400 million US dollars! Who will have the brain to buy it?"
However, as soon as Lu Feng's voice fell, the bidding data floated on the big screen of the projector behind Edward. And this bidding is definitely the most in history, and almost everyone is reporting the ideal price in their hearts.
Ten minutes later, the price has increased to 800 million US dollars.
Twenty minutes later, the price reached 1.2 billion US dollars.
Half an hour later, the price reached two billion US dollars.
After 40 minutes, the number of bidders gradually became scarce, but the price also reached 2.5 billion.
"Two-six billion."
A loud voice sounded in the auction hall. The person who shouted this sentence was Edward with an excited face.
Because no one knows everyone's bidder number, almost everyone is whispering to each other, trying to see who is so crazy that they have to spend a lot of money like this.
No one noticed that the bald iron Tianba sitting in the crowd flashed with excitement in his eyes.
